Please do not mod parent as informative! Apple's margin are roughly 5% lower than Microsoft and this is for the earning reported for last quarter. See for yourself
http://www.google.com/finance?q=aapl (Net profit margin = 22.77%)
http://www.google.com/finance?q=MSFT (Net profit margin = 27.62%)
Sure, Apple does turn in billions of dollars of cash profit each quarter ($3074MM) but Microsoft rakes in even higher profit ($4006MM). Both are publicly traded companies so data is there for everyone to see. Please don't be taken in with sweeping generalities.
